Eastman MD505-BK-LTD, A Model Mandolin, Spruce, Maple, Black Top - NEW

(NEW) For those who want an all-solid, full featured mandolin with a gloss finish (for not a lot of $$$) we present the Eastman MD-505.  Eastman is our top mandolin brand in number of instruments sold, and in our neighborhood pretty much EVERYONE starts their journey on an Eastman mandolin!  The sound and playability are silly-good, better than they should be at this price point, and hard to argue with the limited black top finish on this one!
